When Does Lady Gaga Appear in Wednesday Season 2?
Lady Gaga makes her Wednesday debut in Part 2 of Season 2, not in the initial release. The first four episodes of Wednesday Season 2 were released on Netflix on August 6, 2025, but Gaga does not appear in any of those; her role is reserved for the final four episodes, which premiere on September 3, 2025. Netflix confirmed at their Tudum event that her appearance—and the introduction of her mysterious Nevermore Academy teacher—would be in the second batch. So if you’re waiting to see her, you’ll need to stick around until September.
In a stylish update shared by @netflix on X, the streamer confirmed that Tim Burton’s Wednesday Season 2 is making a highly anticipated return this summer, with Part I premiering on August 6 and Part II following on September 3.
Is Lady Gaga in Wednesday Season 2?
Yes, Lady Gaga is officially part of Wednesday Season 2. Rumors teased her casting and then confirmed publicly during Netflix’s Tudum 2025 live fan event by both the cast and the streamer. Gaga’s addition was announced with a theatrical entrance—a coffin marked “Here Lies the Monster Queen”—at the event, where she performed a medley of tracks and a Wednesday-themed dance number alongside Jenna Ortega.
In a thrilling casting reveal shared by @netflix on X, it was announced that global icon Lady Gaga will be joining Wednesday Season 2 Part 2. She takes on the role of Rosaline Rotwood, a legendary teacher at Nevermore Academy whose path intriguingly intersects with Wednesday Addams.
Even the showrunners admitted her casting was shaped by the viral use of “Bloody Mary” in a Season 1 dance scene, calling her “a perfect fit” for Nevermore’s shadowy new faculty.
What Episode of Wednesday Is Lady Gaga In?
Lady Gaga will appear in the last four episodes of Season 2, which make up Part 2 of the season. These episodes are scheduled to release on September 3, 2025. As of the most recent updates, the specific episode numbers or titles featuring her first appearance haven't been officially confirmed by Netflix or the creative team. But it’s certain she does not show up in Episodes 1–4. If you want to see “Mother Monster” in action, you’ll have to watch the second half. Netflix recently stirred excitement on Instagram through its official handle @netflix_in by revealing that pop icon Lady Gaga will appear in Wednesday Season 2 Part 2.

Who Is Lady Gaga in Wednesday Season 2?
Lady Gaga is playing Rosaline Rotwood—a mysterious, legendary teacher at Nevermore Academy who crosses paths with Wednesday Addams. Promoted by Netflix as a “shadowy presence that makes an already eerie hall colder,” she’s described as enigmatic and somewhat intimidating even by the other outcasts.
Showrunners have said her character was inspired by the viral “Bloody Mary” dance moment from Season 1. While details about her storyline are tightly guarded, she’s clearly set to play a pivotal role in Wednesday’s ongoing challenges at Nevermore. Expect Gaga’s Rosaline Rotwood to add fresh chaos and style. The buzz around Wednesday Season 2 intensified when @WednesdaysDaily shared on X that Lady Gaga is officially confirmed to guest star in the upcoming season, as revealed during the #TUDUM global fan event.
